On the eve of their wedding, Lauren Holt receives a text message from her fiancé David Decker saying their marriage would be a mistake.

Time passes, a couple of years, and now she’s summoned home due to her ill widowed mother. Lauren returns and finds David, who had no ties to Holt Ridge, has moved his business there and has been there living what should have been her life! Now they must work together to plan and execute the community’s Christmas celebrations. In doing so, can she discover why David called off their wedding? Can they find their way back to each other?

Available in paperback, Kindle and in Kindle Unlimited.

Surprise Sale: Forget Me Not

Book 1, Crossroads Crisis Center (which is related to the ShadowWatcher novels).

Just spotted this publisher’s $0.99 sale on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books and Kobo this morning. I have no idea how long it will be on sale, but wanted to pass it along.

Crossroads Crisis Center owner Benjamin Brandt was a content man—in his faith, his work, and his family. Then in a flash, everything he loved was snatched away. His wife and son were murdered, and grief-stricken Ben lost faith. Determination to find their killers keeps him going, but after three years of dead ends and torment, his hope is dying too. Why did he survived?

Now, a mysterious woman appears at Crossroads seeking answers and help—a victim who eerily resembles Ben’s deceased wife, Susan. A woman robbed of her identity, her life, of everything except her faith—and Susan’s necklace.

The connections between the two women mount, exceeding coincidence, and to keep the truth hidden, someone is willing to kill. Finding out who and why turns Ben and the mystery woman’s situation from dangerous to deadly. Their only hope for survival is to work together, trust each other, and face whatever they discover head on, no matter how painful. But will that be enough to save their lives and heal their tattered hearts?
